Gratitude is the only true prayer

Everything in life has been granted to us as a boon. We don’t deserve it. We have no qualifications to be entitled to it. Yet, we never pause to thank all that has been bestowed upon us without our asking.

But, when some petty desire is not fulfilled, we are quick to complain. We are so ungrateful.

If only we would look around and examine what have we done to see this beautiful sunset, listen to the breezes in the trees, enjoy the songs of the birds, then we would realise that all that is valuable in life has been granted to us, but we complain when something does not happen as per our wish.

So, be grateful.
